The dishes on the table were steaming hot. Eyeing the food, Lin Xi extended a hand to grab the chick wings. A chopstick came down on the back of his hand and he quickly drew it back, turning to see Duan Shen’s frown, “Go wash your hands.”

“Oh.” His slippers pattering against the floor, Lin Xi headed towards the kitchen. He stood next to the sink and rolled his sleeves up messily, then put his open palms under the faucet. The water flowed down his fingers as his sleeves slipped down his arms.

Lifting his arms, Lin Xi was about to turn off the faucet when he felt someone approach from behind. He was about to whip around in surprise, but the warmth of breath was on the side of his face.

Duan Shen’s slender hands passed under his arms to grab his wrists. Without any false movements, he pulled Lin Xi’s sleeves up, then held his hands under the water.

The other man didn’t seem to hear his words at all. Slowly he backed away and went to grab the soap dispenser. His voice allowed no argument. “Hands over here.”

Lin Xi: “…”

As he put his hands underneath the dispenser, he rolled his eyes and muttered, “Thanks, Dad.”
